Is IVF Advisable For Conceiving With A Fallopian Tube Blocked?

I am 40 and my wife is 29. We tried IUI in 2002-2004 in Al Sabah but in vain. We tried IVF back in India but ended with lot of stress to my wife and caused obesity. In 2009, we started treatment by Homoeo Doctor from India and now my wife is fully fit with all positive results. This course ends in April. Can I go for IVF treatment in May without using any medicines if all results comply with fertilization? How much does it cost in Kuwait to go for IVF? BTW, my wife recently got all positive results but one of her fallopian tubes is completely blocked since birth. I guess, that is the only hindrance in conceiving.

Hi,

It must have been quite a difficult phase going through so many treatments and not getting a result.
Homeopathy has no such benefit on fertility. so it does not matter when you finish the course.
The IUI are done only when their is Anovulation (difficulty in egg formation) or so the 3 years that you tried IUI were unnecessary, as i assume your wife must be in early 20 at that time and anovulation is rare at such an young age unless she has PCOS.
Can you please tell why IVF was advised and did they know about the blocked tubes before IUI/IVF.
If both tubes are blocked, IVF is the only option.If one of the tubes is blocked then natural conception is possible if all other reports including your sperm count are normal.

Hope this helps.
Regards.
